Solution

The correct option is A Turgid
Plant cells will take up water due to the process of endosmosis. This will swell the protoplasm and cells will become turgid. Cells will become flaccid when water moves out of cells when they are kept in hypertonic medium and their protoplasm will leave the inner surface of the wall and called plasmolysed.
So, the correct answer is option A.
